Subject: RE: BS: Ahhhh! Sometimes quiet is good
Thanks so much for sharing your life with us, Animaterra, Ellenpoly and all of you. I was reminded of the following writing, credited to Bishop Muzorewa. I used this as the text for My christmas Card back in 1990, and I still love to read it:
Love Them Anyway
People are unreasonable, illogical and self centered
Love them anyway
Honesty and frankness make you vulnerable
Be honest and frank anyway
What you spend years building may be destroyed overnight
Build anyway
Give the world the best you have and you'll get kicked in the teeth
Give the world the best you have anyway
If you do good, people will accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives
Do good anyway
The good you do today will be forgotten tomorrow
Do good anyway
And now, lets all join in in singing Blessed Quietness
Jerry
